“Garry Weber has been an integral part of �������ϲ�Ԥ��’s growth and success for many years,” said �������ϲ�Ԥ�� President R. Gerald Turner. “From remarkable student-athlete to distinguished alumnus and donor, his dedication to �������ϲ�Ԥ�� cannot be overstated. We are incredibly honored by the Garry Weber Foundation’s gift and excited about the impact this gift will have on all of �������ϲ�Ԥ�� Athletics. From its founding, �������ϲ�Ԥ�� has always been focused on excellence in everything we do. Having great athletics increases the visibility of the University.”

The new Garry Weber End Zone Complex will anchor Ford Stadium’s south bowl that will connect the stadium’s existing east and west gate entries. The three levels of the new complex will increase the functionality, efficiency and overall experience of Mustang football for student-athletes and fans, as well as inspire interest and investments in athletics across �������ϲ�Ԥ��’s campus. Team-focused spaces will include new locker rooms, a weight room, position-specific meeting rooms, a full-team auditorium and a kitchen and training table to support all of �������ϲ�Ԥ��’s 484 student-athletes. The new facility will also house football coaches, support staff and video and recruiting services.

“Both �������ϲ�Ԥ�� and Dallas have played a substantial role in my life, and I feel honored to pay it forward to the next generation of Mustang student-athletes and fans,” said Weber. “Being a member of a team means striving for success for yourself and those around you, and I’m proud to continue to be a part of Mustang football and its future success and growth. I hope that this gift will inspire �������ϲ�Ԥ��’s student-athletes and Mustang fans to dream bigger than they thought possible and to strive for a new level of excellence.”

The newly constructed concourse will offer premium experiences for fans, expand guest facilities, improve pedestrian accessibility and add an inviting breezeway that joins the stadium’s entryways to the internal field. The facility will reflect the University’s Collegiate Georgian architectural style, for which it is known.

“Garry Weber Foundation’s gift exemplifies the kind of spirit that we hope to instill in our student-athletes,” said Rick Hart, �������ϲ�Ԥ�� director of Athletics. “As a former Mustang football player and a community leader, it is fitting that his name will adorn the new End Zone Complex. This gift will continue our momentum toward a bright future that would not be possible without Garry’s generosity. His belief in the �������ϲ�Ԥ�� student-athlete experience – in shaping champions – will serve as an inspiration to the entire �������ϲ�Ԥ�� community.”

“With this gift, we are capitalizing on the incredible momentum that our football program is currently experiencing and ushering in an exciting new era of Mustang football,” said Rhett Lashlee, �������ϲ�Ԥ�� head football coach. “The Garry Weber End Zone Complex will leave a legacy that creates a lasting impact on our student-athletes for generations. It will also allow us to attract the very best future recruits to join the Mustang family.”
